  • Online consulting

CONSULTING:   The Center for Writing can provide you as a graduate student with support as you write at the graduate level. If you are:

  • starting your graduate program, you can talk with us about a specific assignment or in general about academic writing
  • starting your masters thesis or doctoral dissertation, you can see us about organizing your ideas and organizing your time
  • completing a draft, you can read it aloud one last time to an interested listener.

Feel free to make an appointment with one of our graduate consultants or with the Director. Our hours are flexible, and we can also arrange for a series of  meetings over the time it takes for you to write.
